The more vivid the appeal, the greater the response. The humdrum of the daily requests for service, the problems calling for definite plans of procedure, perplexing situations need- ing immediate solution, all call for just as generous a response of support as freezing, starving humanity. The service department of the Welfare as- sociation does work of much greater proportion than the aid giving section where funds are expended for mater- ial relief. “Rev.

If he does that, the amount of his contributions may safely be left to take cate of itself.’ “Because social work contributes to the common welfare it is but reason- able that all should share in its sup- port.
